Students from Highland Secondary School in Comox have been waving back at Tinney Davidson for years but on Thursday, hundreds of students gathered in front of her home to say one final goodbye.
\n\u201cOh lovely thank you,\u201d said Davidson as she sat in a chair on her front porch.<\/p>\n
Tinny Davidson is now 88-years-old but in 2007, when she and her husband moved into the home on Guthrie Road near Highland, they started waving to students every day and soon the students began waving back. A bond between generations was born.<\/p>\n
\u201cI just liked the look of the children and they all looked in and I thought if they\u2019re looking in, I\u2019ll wave to them and that\u2019s how it started,\u201d said Davidson.<\/p>\n
CHEK News has interviewed Tinney Davidson several times over the years and our first story about her in 2014 made headlines around the world.<\/p>\n
On Thursday, 100s of students crowded her front lawn after school to say goodbye before she moves into an independent living facility.<\/p>\n
